There’s a fish with your name on it in Ithaca and Travelin’ Man Charters will help you catch it! Having logged many hours on these tides, Captain Blair can tell you all about them.
There’s no guarantee when you’re fishing, but just some of the species you can catch around here include Brown Trout, Rainbow Trout (Steelhead), Atlantic Salmon, Lake Trout, and more, depending on when you go. On the day of your trip you’re likely to troll using light tackle.
Capt. Blair welcomes anglers of all ages, including kids, so go ahead and bring the whole family along! Children must wear life vests, so find out if the appropriate size is available on board. Snacks are permitted onboard — bring your favorites to maintain your energy throughout the trip!
Your trip begins aboard a 20’ Starcraft Starweld 20 DC Fusion Pro aluminum fishing boat that holds up to 3 passengers. It has downriggers, everything you need for a productive day on the water. What’s more, this vessel is wheelchair accessible. Rods, reels, and tackle are covered by the charter, along with lures. Live bait is available, but it’s good to ask about this so you know if you’ll be catching it yourself.
Trips are run with the help of a First Mate. A 10–20% tip is customary to show your appreciation for their hard work.
Before coming aboard, you will need to buy a local fishing license for everyone in your group. This information is usually available online, or you can ask the captain. Some species might be protected or require a tag to keep them, so make sure you know what to expect.
Some essentials to bring are sunglasses, bottled water, and sunscreen (non-spray). Alcohol is allowed in moderation, but try to avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles.
Your trip with Travelin’ Man Charters is just a click away, so why not make it happen?
